The Super Falcons’ 2-0 defeat to Japan in Thursday’s international friendly has fuelled the anger of fans who want coach Randy Waldrum fired.
The nine-time African champions have now lost their last five matches under the tutelage of the 66-year-old American tactician.
A second-half brace from Mina Tanaka downed the Super Falcons as they continue their preparations for the 2023 Fifa Women’s World Cup billed for Australia and New Zealand.
Against the Asians, many expected the Super Falcons to return to winning ways. However, they stuttered at the Kobe Stadium without captain Onome Ebi and Barcelona star Asisat Oshoala.
Angered by the team’s poor run of results – their worst ever, enthusiasts have stormed social media to ask the American to quit his role or get axed.
The Super Falcons have now lost five straight matches since their Wafcon win over Cameroon in July. Shouldn’t we be very worried? What is Waldrum doing? – @NurudeenObalola
To the NFF new Boss Alhaji Ibrahim Gusau, one of the most important points of call is to relieve Mr. Randy Waldrum of his position as Head coach of the Super Falcons. Waldrum has turned our best-performing national team into a disjointed group of talents lacking any direction. – @Chidiezeani
So NFF are still allowing this Randy Waldrum to take the Super falcons to the World Cup. They may not win a single game there. – @ChukyUnfazed
